[b][Tewksbury, 12/28/17][/b] - CAST Navigation continues to make progress in GPS and GNSS satellite tracking with its revolutionary CAST-5000 GPS Wavefront Generator. The CAST-5000, known for its high accuracy and precision in CRPA testing and attitude determination receiver testing, is the only machine of its kind. This is because the machine allows full testing of the antenna system from start to finish.

CAST Navigation’s CAST-5000 offers simplicity through versatility and flexibility. The company explains that the machine allows testers to control the user motions and introduces a variety of environmental models. In addition, the CRPA GPS antenna model is customizable, allowing complete control over navigation messages.

The CAST-5000 is also capable of producing one clear GPS RF signal wavefront, creating four independent simulations that meet at a single point. This process ensures low intercard carrier phase errors for CRPA and attitude determination receiver testing.

CAST says, “Its digital architecture improves reliability, accuracy, and fidelity across a range of test applications.”

[b]Government and Military Applications[/b]

Military and government clients need quick and efficient Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) for various purposes ranging from air and maritime navigation to traffic law enforcement. But GNSS/GPS satellite signals are vulnerable due to their low power level.

CAST says, “With the additional feature of our CAST-5000, interference can be mitigated using a variety of techniques.”

CAST-5000 upgrades are available to government and military clients who require mission-critical systems. The upgrade features an additional anti-jam testing capability that specifies interference levels and signal transition characteristics for broadband and narrowband jammers.
